Book of hypersteel meatgrinder, an expansion for hypersteel nightmare a tabletop wargame.

Work in progress behemoth unit. Printed out of brown pla, it is a kitbash of a statue of the titan Atlas but instead of holding the world on his back he has a plinth with a large gun turret on it.

My order of the @epigram.games hypersteel meatgrinder arrived today, have been hyped to play recently and have a behemoth class unit in the works!

A little project for Hypersteel Nightmare begins. Twenty seven Falcon Gravtanks arrived from eBay this morning - turns out I need five. Oh well...

The hypersteel meatgrinder hardback in the flesh

The Hypersteel Meatgrinder hardback books have arrived! Preorders will go up this weekend (barring disasters like discovering half the books have been printed upside down) for a proper release on April 3rd.

Tell your friends! Meatgrinder is coming to town!
(Core rulebook required for use)

If you've been thinking about purchasing the Hypersteel Nightmare physical rulebook, now is the perfect time.

A two page spread from the upcoming Hypersteel Meatgrinder rulebook. The right hand page includes a top-down view of a battle around some kind of farmstead along with the start of the chapter on buildings. The left hand page has a set of documents including a small field notebook in an evidence bag.

Hypesteel Meatgrinder is almost ready for production, I'm just adding the final finishing touches, like these emphemera pages. This time we follow L/Cpl Forester of the 409 Para Scouts.

I'm sure notebooks end up in evidence bags all the time for entirely innocent reasons.

Always lovely to see Hypersteel Nightmare in the wild. Ever wanted a breakdown of how the game works? Listen here:

The top portion of the Hyperstel Nightmare book cover, showing the logo and the tagline "The Skirmish Game of Brutal Armoured Combat" and a giant spider mech fighting a large transporter, whilst a battle rages on below. A partially peeled orange sticker covers the bottom left corner proclaiming "20% off for August on Wargames Vault and HypersteelNightmare.com"

To celebrate Hypersteel Nightmare being available on Wargames Vault, the PDF is 20% off for the rest of August

or

PDFs are even more of a hell format than most people even know.

It's been tagged properly in the PDF, but for instance, Preview on MacOS doesn't follow document page numbers, and instead just follows pdf page numbers (i.e. page 95 is the ninety-eighth page in the PDF)
